Well, I'm honestly only into Japanese music, because I think K-Pop either all sounds too similar to each other or is too much like Western music, and C-Pop just isn't my thing.

But I love Japanese music because it's so different. In general, they take elements from literally every music style, and it's all popular. On the top thirty chart, you can have an R&B ballade, an acoustic rock song, Visual-Kei, techno, and regular J-Pop, all at the same time. You won't find that in, say, the U.S. For the most part, other countries follow very specific trends, and it's hard to find music that's out of the current one. J-Pop isn't like that, though. I mean, there is an overload of boybands and cutesy, wannabe R&B stars, but that's just the surface. You can still find many other genres very easily. To find that in the U.S., you almost always have to look into lesser known or indies bands, and they aren't always worth checking out.
Also, what I love even more about J-Pop is how well the Japanese language fits with music in general, but especially with J-Pop. It's so perfect... Like, English is such a choppy and....kinda rough sounding language. It doesn't always have the right flow, and sometimes syllables are awkwardly split up in lyrics. But because Japanese is a syllabic language, it always works out perfectly when you sing in that language. It's very...beautiful, I guess. It gives you more to play around with when writing lyrics, too. And I also like that about the other main Asian languages. Like Korean, it's great for rap and R&B (maybe that's why they do so much of it?), because all the sounds kinda create their own beat, hah. And Chinese is a melodic language, so it can be sung very pretty, too.
